Yes. However, it seems to be established practice that IPv6 rules more
or less mirror the IPv4 rules. So it seems to be less pressing than
where to put the iptables rules in general.

What do you see as the advantage? I'm interested in hearing the
rational for either /etc/iptables/ or /etc/network/ since iptables-apply
and iptables-persistent are conflicting and unlikely to be resolved
upstream in the immediate future.
